At the heart of Wisley’s Christmas party offering is the Glasshouse - a showstopping venue that brings tropical warmth and festive flair together in one unforgettable experience. Begin your evening with drinks on the Glasshouse Terrace, overlooking the peaceful lake and twinkling borders, before stepping inside to dine and dance among towering palms, exotic blooms and cascading waterfalls.

For a more contemporary celebration, the Terrace Restaurant is a stylish, light-filled space with direct access to the garden. Ideal for up to 100 seated guests or 120 for a standing reception, this venue offers a warm, elegant setting for a festive lunch or evening event, with the option to relax outside on the patio (blankets and mulled wine encouraged!).
Smaller gatherings will feel right at home in the Tulip Tree Room, an intimate venue with views over Wisley’s Seven Acres. With capacity for up to 65 dining guests or 100 standing, and exclusive use of the adjoining outdoor space after hours, it’s perfect for cosy, candlelit Christmas dinners or office get-togethers with a seasonal twist.
Catering is provided by Company of Cooks, whose menus are built around quality, seasonal produce - often grown right here at Wisley. Expect hearty winter dishes, festive canapés and beautifully presented desserts, all crafted with care and perfect for the season. Whether you're clinking glasses beneath the palms or toasting marshmallows by the garden’s glowing lights, a Christmas party at RHS Garden Wisley is guaranteed to be something truly special - elegant, atmospheric, and full of festive cheer.
